I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of California. I have worked as a therapist for the past 12 years. As a first generation Vietnamese American with immigrant parents, my life experiences of growing up in two very different cultures have taught me ways to navigate through cross-cultural conflicts and have the ability to respond to individuals, couples, and families from diverse cultural systems with compassion and understanding. As a therapist, I empower individuals to draw upon their strengths, heal holistically, and self-love. I will encourage and provide a safe space for you to explore, heal, and have the courage to move forward on a journey toward self-discovery, growth, confident, and love. It will help you become more resilience, improve self-worth, and a healthy deep connection with others.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. I strive to create a comfortable and nonjudgmental environment where you and I mutually develop an individualized plan to achieve your goal(s). Therapy can provide a safe space and effective tools/skills for us to overcome difficult times.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Having worked with a diverse population, I am culturally competence and have a diverse experiences in different issues. My strength are more with the adult population with substance use, mental health, and couple counseling.
